FFs are customized flip-flops, sold online. They have been relatively popular with $10,000 sales last past year.

The average selling price per pair is $10. The low frill pairs sell for $8 (Number of units is approximately 25% of pairs sold). Highly decorated pairs sell for $20 (number of units is also approximately 25% of pairs sold).

Cost of materials for embellishing and customizing the flip-flops range from $2.50 - $8.00 per pair.

Sophia estimates it takes her 30-90 minutes (.5 - 1.5 hours) to decorate one pair, depending on the complexity of the design. She isn't sure what value to assign to an hour of her labor.
